Backgrounds. We are both in the US Right now. I'm in Florida, he's in Texas. I was born in Malaysia. Ajit, where were you born?
I was born in Jaipur, a small town in India.
Amazing. Amazing. So we, we dig diversity and we love the fact that a community comes from all around the world. Now let me tell you what we're going to be covering today. So those of you who signed up for this webinar signed up to go through a presentation on Mind Valley's business coach certification. So mindvalley has a coaching division. As you know, we are the world's biggest company in human transformation. And we've had millions and millions of people go through our online programs over the last two decades. And we found that as many people went through their mindvalley transformation, often they would come back to us with a desire. And the desire is, I've grown so much. How can I now take these teachings, take these ideas and help other people? Because this knowledge shouldn't just be kept to me. How can I help my family? How can I help my community? How can I help the people in my, my, my workplace? And so with Ajit, several years ago, we launched a new division called mindvalley Certifications. And mindvalley certifications is about teaching people the art of coaching. So we train people to be health coaches, to be life coaches, to be business coaches, and to be hypnotherapists. Today, what we're going to talk about is that, that business coaching certification, which is a four month program that teaches you how to coach someone as an entrepreneur, how to coach someone to scale their business. Now if this is interesting to you, then you're in the right place. Now, some people who are here, and this is really, this was really intriguing when we found out 50% of the people who take our coaching certifications are not doing it because they want to be a life coach or because they want to be a business coach. They're doing it because they want to, to go through that transformation. So half the people who take this business coaching certification are actually people who are looking to start a business or have a business, but want to get better at it. Because what mindvalley teaches is a, is a, a process driven method to think about scaling a business so that you check all the boxes and you master your mindset and you master your processes and you master the game of business and life. And as you do so. So, Ajit, you ready to get started?
I am super excited to get started. So ready.
Okay, so I'm going to share My presentation so you guys can follow along. You can see me and Ajit, but we'll put everything up on screen. Okay, so the first thing is my name is Vishen. For those of you who are new to Mindvalley. I'm the CEO and co founder of Mindvalley. I started this company in 2003. So I guess we're going into our 21st year right now. And I started it because I was a. I was working in Silicon Valley as a VP of technology. Got really burnt out at work and meditation saved me. And it's, it transformed my life to such a degree that I decided to quit my job and start a website teaching meditation. And that really was how mindvalley started. In 2008, when we were, we were around five years old, Ajit joined the company and Ajit went on to become one of the top people in the business. At a certain point he was also the CEO of Mindvalley. And in around 2015 he became a co founder and we launched a division to help coaches. So Ajit is a beautiful mind and he's been the person who has been leading mindvalley certifications. Ajit is one of the world's best trainers of coaches and today he's living his dream, training 12,000 coaches a year. Is that number accurate, Ajit? I believe it's now closer to 14,000.
It's probably closer to 14,000. We enroll a lot of students and we just started a batch of certified life coaches. Almost a thousand people in there. So yes, it'll probably closer to 14,000. Sorry.
Yeah, right. And Ajit is brilliant at getting people to become really powerful coaches. Coaching is very different from teaching. Right. There's a whole different nuance to it. Ajit will talk about that. So the company we started, which is a division of mindvalley, is called Mindvalley Certified Coach, where we make you certified to transform. So the millions of people who go through mindvalley programs, they may decide, okay, I want to be a life coach, I want to be a health coach, I want to be an entrepreneurial coach. And for those of you who are interested in that last aspect, entrepreneurial and business coaching, this is what we're going to be taking you through. So we're going to talk about the program, the curriculum, the pricing, the cost, how the four month transformation happens, what to expect. We'll go as deep as possible to answer all of your questions so you can decide if this is an investment you want to make in your career and education. Now, we value your time. So what we're going to do is if you stay till the end of this presentation, we're going to give you a free gift. Zoom gives us a way to see who stays till the end, and we'll be giving you a free gift, which is something which I think you'll really like. Now, Ajit, on to you.
So I wanted to introduce my journey a little bit so you have context. So you see, I didn't start as a coach. I didn't actually start as somebody who was coaching coaches. That's not how my journey started. My journey started just like a lot of you might have been or might be in the place of today, which is you're either employed by someone or you have started a company, or you may have started a company a little while ago and you're kind of like, trying to build it and so on and so forth. And I was in the same journey. What had happened in the early part of my career is I joined several organizations. One of them eventually became mindvalley, where I spent about eight, nine years. And I quickly grew the ranks, and I started to see a pattern. I had the ability somehow to be able to help individuals get better. I had the ability somehow to be able to solve problems. At that time, I didn't call it coaching. What happened was we have an event called A Fest at mindvalley, and I was attending one of the A fest. So if you see this picture on your screen, which I'm hoping all of you can see, let's see if you can identify. You can clearly see me without a hat, though. It's really hard to decipher. Right? But. But here is one more person in the center. Let's see if any of you recognize who this person is. I'm looking at the chat. Yeah, we've got Claudia. This is Lisa. This is Lisa Nichols. This is a really old photo of Lisa. That's why I like to kind of trick people into trying to figure out if they remember how Lisa used to look like. This is a very old picture. This is maybe nine or ten years ago that I was with Lisa, and we were just having breakfast. Nothing of it. It was just, hey, let's have breakfast. And I was like, sure. She was speaking on stage. I love to interact with individuals who are awesome. And so, like, yeah, let's have breakfast. And she happened to just share what she was doing in her business. And as she was sharing what she was doing in her business, I was like, wow, Lisa, that sounds amazing. And it sounds incredibly complicated. It sounds like you're doing so many different things and it seems to not cohesively make sense. Can I propose something for you to consider? And she was like, yeah, absolutely. Please tell me. And so I kind of drew and she, if you go to her event and I happen to be in the audience, she will tell you this story herself. So I'm kind of using her words to explain this. But you would say, ajit, you drew two lines, line one and line two. And you said, lisa, all you do is this and this. Let's simplify your business to fit into these two models. And you will be able to take away all that noise that you have right now around you that may be taking away from the power of your business. And I made nothing of it. I thought, oh, great, breakfast. I maybe helped her. She's Lisa Nichols. She's not really going to listen to. To me, I'm like a kid around the block. Like, why does she care? Why would she care? She was just being kind, right? Any of you doubted yourself sometimes, like asked yourself or gave some value to someone and immediately went, I don't know if this is valuable for that person. Anybody recognize that as a pattern? That was me. Like most of us kind of going, oh, crap. I don't know if I am actually that good or not, or I'm just making this up. And that's what happened with me. But here's what happened. Two weeks later. Two weeks later I get a call. I used to live in Malaysia at that time because I was running Mindvalley. And I get a call from Lisa. Lisa going, and was from a US number. I didn't know who it was. I didn't pick it up. But then I get a text saying, hey, this is Lisa Nichols. I want to talk to you. I was like, sure, let's do it. And I give a call back and Lisa goes, hey, Ajit, remember those two lines that you drew on the breakfast? And we were having breakfast. I was like, no, I don't remember the two lines. Because in my mind I had not made anything off it. But I was like, sure. And I. And she said, hey, listen, you did this 20 minute conversation with me that really has shifted everything for me. Would you be open to come to California and talk to me and my team? I was like, wow, that sounds like fascinating opportunity just generally to be able to help somebody like Lisa Nichols, who's such an impactful person. I was like, sure, I'll tell you when I'm next in town. So next time I was in California attending a different event I was around where her office was. So I drove down to San Diego to and hung out with our team for an entire day. Now, about a year from then, Lisa came up to me at another event and said, hey, Ajit, the day that you did with us completely changed my business. I was able to completely reimagine my entire team, all the systems in the company, all the things that we were doing, and have simplified my business. Ajita used to be 300 days of a year on road. Now I am 200 days on road. My goal is eventually to be 50 days on road through the year because she's a big speaker, right? And I want to be able to still make as much or more revenue in my business and support my team. But simplifying my business, I'm happy to report years later, now she's done all of that and even better, right? So Lisa herself is a powerful business coach, and I'm not taking any of her credit, but that was the point where I realized that I had something to offer to the world. And these instances might have happened to you already where you contributed to someone, where you helped someone, where somebody said, thank you for sitting down with me, listening to me. Thank you so much for giving me ideas. Or there might be an internal voice in your heart and your soul which tells you, hey, listen, I want to do something because I know I have some hidden power within me, right? If that is you, I wanted to share the story so you know that sometimes somebody else may bring this attention to you. Sometimes this will be within you.
But.
But it's important to hear that voice, because what Lisa did for me at that time to remind me of my greatness was something that has helped me now change over 14,000 lives every year, like Vishen mentioned by training coaches. So it's not only Lisa whose life's what life was transformed after that. There are many different businesses, many different individuals whose lives have been transformed. I want to quickly share some of these names. Vishen, if you can go to the next slide, quickly share some of these names so you kind of get an idea that it's not. You have to be a Lisa Nichols to be successful. Right? Because sometimes it feels so far out. This is Joss. I just was speaking to Joss four or five months ago, and she's one of our students of Certified Business Coach. And she said, ajit, what I learned in Certified Business Coach, I implemented that in my agency. So she's not a coach. She runs an agency called Love Media, and she implemented that in her agency. And she said I just crossed a million dollars in revenue. I've never crossed that revenue before. This was a first time I did it. And it was all thanks to Certified Business Coach. This is Scott Devine. This is one of those businesses where we implemented to test out to make sure the models we are teaching you work. And Scott grew his business by 50% every single year hitting eight figures which is over 10 million in revenue in two years after using the models that we teach here in Certified Business Coach, this is Alyssa Tidzwell. She was a marketing consultant. She upgraded herself to marketing coach consultant and now just a coach consultant and annually does $300,000 annually in her coach consulting business. Next slide. This is Jackie. Jackie is an amazing case study. She did CBC or Certified Business coach and went straight to implement it in her. So she used to be working for a company and wanted to transition to be a business coach. So she used the model and Certified Business coach and implemented that and within two years, it's been just two years since she did the program. She now runs a million dollar coach consulting business. She's a coach consultant to construction companies and is generating a million dollars in revenue based on her own reporting as of last week. And she is so busy that she's now starting to build a team so she can continue that journey. So she's going to be building that team over the next two years and maybe next time we share her story. She's doing multimillion dollars in her coach consulting revenue which is amazing as a case study. So what is it that we are really talking about is the underlying principle? I want to give an underlying principle so you understand it's not like any other program you've ever heard before. Because if you go out in the marketplace and if you've ever considered looking at a business coaching program, you'll often find they just focus on the coaching approaches. And that just doesn't work in business. Because in business, while you are hired to yes, coach the business, usually your greatest results are measured by how you're consulting a problem. What does that mean? See, when you go into a business, it's full of team members, right? The people in the company. These people need to be enabled for the business to thrive. Absolutely, 100%. But sometimes there's, or most of the time there's a knowledge gap or an overwhelm gap as we call it, where people don't know how to solve a problem because they have too much data but no real information. And so our job as a coach consultant in the company to is to coach the people so they can be upgraded, to be able to solve any quality of challenges that the business would engage in, but at the same point in time, solve the problems that are immediately present and pertinent to the business. So we give you tools and simple models across nine different domains that will help you solve problems that most likely will give a growth of anywhere between 30 to 100% for the revenue of the business, if that is the intention of the business. So that's the model and the underlying philosophy of everything and all the successes that I mentioned before and all of that you learn in certified Business coach. Now, this is not just for businesses who want to do better. This is actually for individuals who want to go out in the world and impact humanity by actually helping business. By the end of the program, you're not only learning all the tools, you're actually getting a real certificate from Mindvalley as a Mindvalley Certified Business Coach. Now, Mindvalley is one of the most successful, transformative companies known to businesses and to individuals, right? If you go out on the wall and if anybody is slightly exposed to the idea of growth and tell them the company named Mindvalley, it's most likely that they will go, oh, yeah, I know that. I know that company. I've seen their ads. I've taken a program, I've taken a certification with them, something or the other, right? And with that. Now when you are paired with a brand like Mindvalley and you become a certified business coach, with Mindvalley, you have the ability to go out in the world and really be able to engage in the world in a very powerful way.
Vishen and I want to. I want to talk about why. Why is it that we added business coaching to our portfolio of coaching certifications, right? So Mindvalley is unique as a company. As I said, we started out in meditation. The first 10 years of Mindvalley, we only focused on spiritual programs. But as I went deeper into spirituality, my understanding of spirituality changed. I started to realize that the most spiritual people in the world were not people who were just. Just had mastered their inner core. They were people who were going out there and actually doing good in the world. They were starting companies, building products, writing books. They were creating charities. They were doing things that actually did good in the world. And we call this Humanity plus. They were creating not any business, but a Humanity plus business. A Humanity plus business is a business that's elevating these, its stakeholders and the planetary systems to a higher level. Now it's so important in spirituality to understand this principle. This is why my, my best selling book, the Buddha and the Badass has that title. Buddha and badass. Yes. You want to master your inner Buddha, but you must also master that badass of your nature. That badassery that makes you go up there and shake and rattle the world. And the greatest way to do this is to also master business. So as we started training life coaches and you know, our life coaching certification is amazing. Life coaching is all about transforming a person's life, getting them to master themselves. We also want to train people to master the art of building structures, AKA businesses, companies that can benefit the world. Because you must learn both. Now this is a very important lesson. And it hit me one day when one of our Mindvalley instructors, Professor Sri Kumar Rao, so Sri Kumar Rao, if you've heard of him, he teaches on Mindvalley. He is one of the top MBA professors in the world. And Rao came to me once and said, vishen, you know the problem with American business schools? And I go, tell me. He goes, the problem is they teach people that the business is the most important thing. This is not true. We have to start teaching people that the most important thing is their rate of growth. Your business is nothing more than a vehicle for your personal growth. It is the greatest vehicle for your personal growth. As you go through building a business, it's like going to a gym and transforming your body. Your business is transforming your soul and your personal growth. So we have to create people who understand that personal growth should be at the forefront of everything they do, but also that their business is the greatest gym for their personal growth. So this is why you can't just stop at creating life coaching. We have to create business coaching. Because that business that you create is an entity tied to you that elevates, grooms and makes you a bigger version of yourself. Rao goes on to say, if your business becomes a billion dollars, it doesn't matter. The question is, did you grow? If your business fails, it doesn't matter. The question is, did you grow? Your business is nothing more than the greatest vehicle for your personal growth. And there's a process, there's a formula, there's a structure to make this growth happen. Okay, so back to you, Ajit, to speak about the opportunities of business coaching.
Absolutely. This is such an ever growing field. If you could go to the next slide, Vishen, see you must the one thing, the one data that people don't have access to. But if you really look at how many businesses are started every, every Single year, by the way, across the globe is 1 million. 1 million new businesses are registered every single year across the globe. Out of them, about 60% of them, I think, fail in the first year. Right. So about 400,000 businesses actually survive the first year. But out of them, about 100,000 businesses actually go on to cross a million dollar mark. Which is amazing, which is fascinating, which is wonderful, because that means every single year, 100,000 new businesses are being added to to the list of millions of businesses that have been started in the past that can use help. And that's no surprise that now the business coaching industry has become a $20 billion industry because more and more you lean into more businesses starting. More and more entrepreneurs are starting businesses, getting successful, but without the education to keeping it successful or even growing it or keeping it or maintaining it to the level that they've already found success in. And that's where a business coach comes in. It's a $20 billion industry. And the starting earning potential for a business coach is anywhere between $65,000 to $150,000 annually. And this is the starting range. I've already talked about some individuals who are crossing 300,000. I've shared with you stories of people who are crossing a million. And business coaching is one of those fields where there's no real ceiling. The more more proficient you get, the more successes you record with businesses, the more money you get to make with less amount of time that you invest in the business or actually coaching the business because you become just so good. Right. So an average, for example, my average fee for coaching a business is about $150,000. Where I talk to you maybe once a month. Right. So it's a very interesting and no financial ceiling kind of business, but the starting range is about $65,000. What you would make as a business owner. And this again, you can translate that for your countries. This is for us. Then second, it's one of the fastest growing industries, second fastest in the world. And this is one industry. When you impact one business, you actually are not impacting just one person, which happens in a life coaching environment or a health coaching environment. When you are impacting a business, most likely you're impacting Anywhere between 8 to 8,000 people. Yes. A single business transformation can lead to that much change. Because when you are changing one leader's perspective of approaching business, you're impacting about eight direct reports, which is an average number of reports that a leader would have, or if, let's say that person is a CEO of 8000 person company. If you transform that CEO's life or you're able to coach them in a way, how the team communicates or how leadership is done, or how teams are built, or how culture is reformed, you could transform 8,000 lives by changing, by changing one person's life. So the butterfly effect or business coaching is nothing like anything else in the world. Next slide. So coaching is for anyone who finds themselves that you are, you are looking to impact people in their lives. Where your career may feel a little unfulfilling right now, or even if it's fulfilling, it's not something that you feel like you're meant to do in the world. Like it feels like you're kind of settling for what you can do within your career. Maybe you're settling with what you can do with your business. Maybe you're feeling like it's not enough in the context of what you could do, that your potential has been curbed and limited because you are in some work environment, right? This is for anybody who's looking for a parallel career, for a new career, for a transformative career where every single interaction that you have with the world has a dramatic, dramatic effect on the world outside. And it's not limited to small nuanced changes, but big impactful things. So this is a great career opportunity for all of them. It is a great career opportunities for coaches who are looking to gain higher level income in their businesses. Because if you're a life coach or a health coach, you may realize that your hourly or monthly or your package fee kind of gets limited. A business coach's minimum fee is about $10,000 for three months, right? So your immediate gain in income is significantly higher if you're a business coach. If you're looking to start a new career or business, especially if you've already had some success in life. Like if you are a leader in an organization, if you played a managerial role, if you run a small team, if you've run a large team, if you're an executive position. All of these roles, by the way, qualify you to become an even better business coach. A lot of people discount themselves. They go, oh, I've never done business, Ajit. How can I be a business coach? You absolutely can be. When I was coaching Lisa, I didn't have a business at that time. I was working in a business. I was working for Mindvalley. Right? But I could coach a business owner. And while I didn't charge anything, Lisa, I could have charged because she actually offered. She literally sat me down and said, what can I pay you for this? And I said nothing. I'm just doing it as a friend. I don't even see myself as a coach. I'm just helping out because you asked and you're one of our friends and so why not? So, so it could be a highly paid career, it could be an immediate career. Even if you have never started a business, right? So you wanna start a new career or business, great opportunity for you. If you're a small business owner, most likely it is that you started something out of passion and it worked. And it worked a little bit. But now you're stuck because you never had formal business education, you never had real business understanding. You just started something because you were passionate about it. Well, this is the perfect program for you because this is one of those fast track, practical MBAs. It's not one of those gibberish MBAs that you learn in big institutes and universities where they teach you a bunch of stuff that is non applicable for your business. Most things, everything that we talk about in certified business coaches, very applicable. You can implement it starting as soon as you go through that module. And lastly, if you're an ambitious employee, See, listen, a lot of the models that I teach I learned especially on leadership Culture team, I learned as I was building teams within the frame of a business, either Mindvalley or other companies that I was working for. I've always been a high performing employee for organizations that I work with and that's because of my coaching abilities and my ability to find white spaces and solve those problems really effectively. So if you are an employee and you're like, hey, listen Ajit, I don't really want to be a coach, I just want to be an employee and I want to make more money. Well, this works for you too. Or even if you want to be a coach, but you want to in transition kind of get really successful, it works for you. What does it mean to become a business coach today? First of all, you get a deep understanding on how to coach a business without understanding the business and the industry itself. Again, one of those common myths is Ajit, I never worked in business, I have not worked in that industry. Can I coach them? You absolutely can. Because the universal principles of business is the universal principles of business. It is a unique integration of ELS understands and has done enough work in the world to be able to understand this model that you have to coach the person and you have to consult the problem. So we build this model around a very unique model that is only trained by us. It's very results focused approach. We don't teach you just bunch of ideas, we actually show you exactly results and how you can drive results when you're working with companies. Because It's a direct ROI approach. If I get paid $10,000, I want my clients to make $100,000. If I get paid $100,000, I want my client to make a million dollars. It's an ROI based approach and we show you exactly how to do that and then it's adaptable to modern day needs. See, we don't keep our business certification contained to what we may have thought 10 years ago. No. Every year we update and add modules, if not directly within the program, then we add it as bonuses. For example, the most recent module that we added is how to use AI as a coach to be able to expand your coaching practice. Right. So we teach you how to do these things based on what's happening in the world. So, so your training is very congruent to the world outside. Next slide. Now this is an opportunity for a lifetime. What you learned, I actually gave you the wrong number. It wasn't 1 million, it's 5 million businesses that were registered in 2021. So that's an average business coaching industry is $11.2 billion in market size and it's growing by 220 million every year. But this is an opportunity for lifetime. If you really think about it, once you learn the skills under Certified Business Coach, you're not going to just forget them. This is going to be applicable for the next job, the next career, the next business. In your coaching business, in your consulting business, you will keep using these opportunities. So what you invest today in learning this, you will actually be utilizing for the next ten years at least. Yeah.
What's beautiful about this is that you're not just gaining a skill that you can use to help other businesses, you're you're gaining a skill that you can use to become a better entrepreneur for whatever your dream, whatever your business is. Now, to show you the power of this, we want to share some stories of actual students so you can see the impact that this four month program has had on actual people. Ajit.
So this is BAE Marie Bay. Marie was in our first cohort, first class of Certified Business coach and in that as she was doing the class, I had set an intention I'd do it with, with every group that we do with certified business. Because I say, hey, in the next four months, as you're taking the program, I want you to set an intention of what you're gonna do within while you're doing the program. And people set all types of goal. I wanna grow my business. I wanna become a better leader. I wanna get clients, I wanna get speaking gigs. So BAE had set up, I wanna get clients and I wanna speak on stages. So before the end of the program, this was before the end of the program, she actually landed two speaking gigs and added four more clients. And many such stories like this happen. Vishen, next slide. Like, for example, this is Vladimir. Vladimir said, I want to make more money. So he was able to generate $100,000 that year while he was still getting certified. All right. And he was even asked to become the CEO of a company because of the skills that he was gaining as a coach. Next then is Austin. Austin had a simple idea. He was like, hey, in the first 30 days of the program, I want to make some money. I want to actually make more money than I invested in in this program. So he landed a $10,000 client the first 30 days of the program. But this is where we hadn't even gone to the consulting modules. We were still on the coaching modules, as you will learn later when we tell you about the program. And he already made $10,000. So that was not even 25% of the program over. And he made more money that he invested to learn in the program. Next slide. And this is Isaac. As I said, he helped him gain confidence. And remember, Isaac was a CEO for 20 years when he joined the program. Now just imagine somebody who has been a CEO for 20 years and he joins a program and says, wow, I learned so much more. I feel even more confident as a CEO. It shows you the power of what you're going to learn within the frame of the program. It fundamentally changes you as a person. Next slide. And this is Natalie. Natalie says she was having into a transition. She was in a season of transition in her career, and she was able to make that transition to because of everything that she learned in this program. And she was able to upgrade her skills to be able to do that. Next. This is Francois. Francois actually lives in Thailand and he was able to get two paying clients. From what I recall, Frankwa was a health coach who wanted to transition into a more profitable career, a career which will pay him more. And so he moved into business coaching. And before the end of the program, he was able to get two clients, which effectively meant he made more money than what he invested into the program. Here's the framework that we'll really take you through. These are many different elements, but the foundation of everything comes to coaching the person and consulting the problem. I've already explained that, so I'm not going to go more into that. But here are some of the key areas that we will show you, demonstrate to you, give you models on so you can grow your business. First is communication. Communication is one of the failure points of business and most of the individuals, almost the businesses that fall apart is because of communication. We give you simple models that allow you to build a continuous trust within you and the organization that you're coaching or your own organization to upgrade and get results. Next. Second, emotional management. How many times do we have or have we seen in our work environment that we lose productivity because we are having an emotional catastrophe, if I may call it that, within the frame of the organization. Conflicts, disagreements, not coming to terms, not communicating, not regulating ourselves. This is what really leads to a downward spiral of a high performing individual. We show you exactly how to help individuals, how to manage emotionally within the team. Then is mindset. How do you really get into growth mindset? We think we are always in the growth mindset, but we are not. We get attached to what we have learned in the past that stops the organization from growing into the future. Next, behavior. What are the habits that are really creating change in the organization? What are the habits that we need to implement within the frame of the organization so we can make the organization more effective? Next then is leadership. We don't have to share how important leadership is, but often leadership is so confusing or becomes so confusing because there's so much noise coming at us to what leadership even means. What is the role of a leader? How is it that you could be a high performing leader? Well, we demystify it for yourself and for your clients. Next. Next is marketing again, one of those things that if you go down the rabbit hole, there's probably 10,000 books that you can read that will give you 10,000 different ideas. Marketing is so easy if you make it simple and we do that for you. We show you a simple model marketing that pretty much globally can be applicable. And if you take it to a client and they implement that marketing model, they will find success. There's a story, there's a story of Alyssa that I shared with you. Before one of our students, she was a marketing consultant. She said, ajit, when I did the marketing module of and she was a marketing consultant for like seven years before that. She said, after seven years of marketing consulting, I realized how little I knew when I did the marketing consulting section of the program. Because that one module Changed her entire career. From there on, then it's client experience, client experience, paramount like experience that your client is having with you. But so few of us really have models to implement so we can have a better client experience for our, for our people, for our clients. Next, money. One of those things that really baffles individuals. Money management. We all learned we started businesses because we are passionate about it. But guess how many entrepreneurs take even including how to understand cash flow sheets, how to build the approach that we think is the most powerful approach for a client to have great results or financial results. Next. Then comes systems. One of the underrated things that we all know. If a business does not have good systems, the entrepreneur will always be busy. If you're a founder right now and you feel like you're working all the time, it's probably because you built no systems. If you are a solopreneur right now, it's probably because you don't have any systems. If you're a coach that is finding it hard to get success in your coaching business, it's probably because you don't have systems. If you're a consultant and you're feeling like I'm always on the treadmill, it's because you don't have systems. To show you exactly how to find the unconscious systems that are running your business right now and make more conscious systems that can run your business in a way that it grows. Next then is strategy. How do you simplify strategy? You know the biggest problem with strategy meetings? After the strategy meeting, nobody remembers what happened at the strategy meeting. True story. Ask any founder, any leader. It's like everybody else's strategy meeting. They're like, you talked about 10,000 ideas. What was the the strategy again? We simplify that. We make it easy for you to actually make strategy meetings more effective so you can walk out with a strategy and get results from that strategy that you just discussed and spent so much time on. Next then is planning taking that strategy into an action and an actual action plan that works. How do you measure it? How do you follow up on it? How do you get your team to commit on it? Let's think about it like this for a second. If you've ever worked in a business, how many times a great strategy meeting was defeated because it never got executed? It's one of the most common challenges that we have heard. It's that business goes well. We came up with a great strategy and then the implementation was just absolute garbage. And so we never really got the results that we thought we will get. And that's exactly where planning comes into play. How do you get the team to actually be excited about the delivery and execution of those things? Next. And there's so much more that we cover over the 16 week immersion that you're going to have directly with me and my team of coaches on certified business coach Vishen.
Okay, so let's talk about some of the benefits that you get from the program. Okay. So you have an understanding of the structure and all of the things that get covered. Keep in mind that when it comes to business, they are predictable processes that lead to predictable results. It's not an act of randomness. When I one of the reasons I believe I was able to build a successful company with no venture funding, no bank loans, over a hundred million in revenue is because I always took the time to hire the right coach to coach me. I always attended the right events where I learned systems and structures. And these systems and structures allowed me to build a very operationally efficient business. Today I'm the CEO of a company with hundreds of millions in revenue. I don't even need to go to the office. I'm in meetings no more than three hours a day. And I work when I choose to work. But everything runs perfectly like clockwork because of systems and structures. And that's what you're going to learn. And it's such a great gift because you're not just learning that for yourself, you're learning how to coach someone else. So you help elevate other businesses. So let's look at some of the benefits. Okay, Ajit, let's go through this really quickly.
Absolutely. The first benefit you have is you learn a holistic, highly valued skill that will last you a lifetime. I mean, no points for guessing that, right? This is a skill that you learn and you get to keep it for a very long time. And business is going to be around always. And so this skill is going to be needed all the time. The second is you get to question and challenge and find a new work in life paradigm. Because there's a lot of time and money freedom associated to coaching. Because when you're coaching, you're not paid by the hour, you're paid by the result in a way. Right? So if that hour is a powerful hour, you still get paid the same amount of money. You don't have to work all day for it. Nobody's tracking your hours, which allows you time freedom. And because it's paid by results, the more bigger the results you get, the more higher your financial ceiling gets. And so you don't really have a limitation on how much money you can make. You become a trusted asset to today's leading businesses and entrepreneurs. Because business coaches are people that leaders confine in. They tell their personal challenges around business and so forth with them. So you're really able to help them navigate one of the most important positions in the world today. You can see great growth in your own business, in your own career, on your own teams, because you are now a holistic being versus just being a specialist in the line that you might have trained in when you were in college or something like that. You really get to learn how business overall is designed. Next slide. Which brings infinite possibilities for positive impact. Like I said, when you impact a business, a founder, a CEO leader, you're starting a butterfly effect. You're not just impacting that person, you're impacting many, many, many, many individuals on the back of it. And you also start to take a pioneering role in the future of business. Let's be very honest, business is changing, world is changing. And if we are not at the forefront, we as business owners may not survive. And might be the same thing for many businesses who don't have individual showing up for them with the latest and the greatest ways of building businesses. There were, I think it was. There's one of the investors in Silicon Valley that recently said it's not AI that's going to kill your business. It's going to be people who learn the use of AI that's going to probably hinder your business. And it's because that's the pioneering role one has to play. And AI is just one of the factors. There's machines, there's all of these things that are changing and we need individuals like yourself, individuals like myself, individuals like Vishen coming in and helping businesses navigate the change that is. And we train you on all of that inside Certified business coach. Next slide. So it's a 16 week immersion, like I said, about four months, where you learn how to create a profitable career facilitating growth for companies and business leaders, including yourself. Next. What you will learn. Let me just walk you through really quickly because I kind of covered it already. Next slide. First month. We focus on the coaching model. So our absolute focus on coaching model here is where you'll learn how to coach a person, right? Coach the person can solve the problem. Here we focus on coaching the person. These are fundamentals of coaching that you need to learn before you get started. Because irrespective that you have been or trained as a coach, a lot of the times the coaching that is trained outside are not in the context of business. So we coach you and we give you the trainings and train you on coaching models, but in context of business. Next. Then comes month two where we really focus on the fundamentals of coaching and we start leaning a little bit into consulting. Next slide. Here we talk about very specific areas of coaching where we really, really bring these skills. If you can go to the next one, I will tell you all the competencies you will develop by month two, right? So month one, month two included, you will build the competencies around rapport, building, awareness, trust, neutrality, empathy, presence, congruence and asking powerful questions. These are fundamentals of coaching that allow you to be able to impact any individual when you are interacting with them. And month three onwards, we really start leaning into consulting. Vishen, next slide. The month three is about core competencies of consulting. This is the foundation of consulting where you learn what stage of business are you even consulting? How to really think about this stage of business that, that you're consulting. How do you make this simple, effective marketing plan that gives a gain of 30 to 50% to any business really starting any time? What are some of the core growth areas for a business? The fundamentals, leadership, marketing, culture and teams are covered in this month. You run the foundations of consulting and you learn about these elements and then you go to the other areas of consulting. Like I said, we give you models across many different areas of challenges the company will face. Next slide. And so what we do is we take you to the next section where we cover the remaining areas of business. You can go to the next slide as well, which is strategy, money management, customer experience, systems and planning. So we cover all of these areas in the next next month, which is in four weeks. We cover about five areas. So, so that's really all the areas that we'll cover over the course of four months if we go to the next one. Vish, what we have done is we know that sometimes, especially in the business frame, we look for validation from outside bodies. Not we, but individuals that are taking a program. So what we did is we reached out to EMCC which is European Mentoring and Coaching Council and we ran the program through them. So it's completely accredited by them. You have to still go and take their test, but you'll fully be able to take the test when you are finished with certified business coach. And we also consulted the body called ICF or International Coaching Federation. And for them we applied for something called continuous Coaching education units. These are units that you get if you are Already a certified coach and you need to maintain these for ongoing education. The reason why we have structured it this way is because firstly, if you need the whole overall license, you have EMCC anyways. Right. And ICF is globally recognized as well. But we wanted to not overly simplify our program, which we'll have to do if you want it to be fully like the base level accreditation of icf. So we wanted to say, hey listen, now you have three bodies that are actually acknowledging your work. Emcc, European Mentoring, Coaching Council, ICF at CC Units, but most importantly mindvalley. Right. Because this is probably the most known out of the other three of the three. Not that the other ones are discounted because of it, but the most known brand across all three is mindvalley. So you're getting accredited by mindvalley, you're getting credited by EMCC and you're getting ICC units by icf. So you get triple, you can say benefit of accreditation, if I may. There are triple validation, if I may, that the program is something that meets global standards because it's European Mentoring and Coaching Council, remember. Right. Mindvalley, which is a whole other standard of, of of accreditation of quality assurance. And of course ICF is also within the frame to, to acknowledge that it has been validated multiple times. Now let's get into how this whole thing even works. So here's how it works. It requires about three hours of your time every single week. Three hours of your time every single week. Here's how these hours break down. The first is a weekly prerecorded training. This is where you will take a module in your own time. You can study at any time. When you get that hour, you could do it while you're traveling. You can do it in your car, you can listen to it while you are working out. It's perfectly okay. The second is where we do a live Q and A. You and I are going to get on the call, not one on one, but in the group where we'll go together and I'll answer all of the questions and I also tackle real time case studies. So if you're working with a business or you are a business owner or if you are working with a client right now and you say, hey Ajit, I have this situation. I actually show you how to use the modules and how to use other ideas to be able to solve that problem. So it's a very live, interactive Q and A where you're getting direct answers and tools and strategies and coaching in that frame of 60 minutes every single week. And then we know you only learn something when you practice and you might have recognized that about yourself. So what happens in the third hour is you get to go into weekly coaching pods where you coach with your peers in that container. So in summary, next slide you get easy to follow. Weekly training. This is the prerecorded 60 to 90 minutes. Second, live Q& A where you directly work with me for about an hour every single week. Third, you get to practice in coaching labs with each other for about an hour to 90 minutes every single week. Next slide. So this is how it looks like. This is what you will see on the mindvalley app. You can consume it on your computer, you can consume it on the iPad. Wherever that is that you take the mindvalley programs is where you will take the prerecord training. Next slide. Here are the times in case you're like, hey, I want to check in with my schedule. The welcome call starts on April 24th. So it's about two weeks from now. And the end date of the program is August 28th. Right. So it's about a four month program. There'll be some weeks where we'll take off because we have a live event that we'll invite you to as well to come. And because of those end at August 28th. So by end of August you'll be graduating. The live calls are going to happen at 8:30am Los Angeles or 4:30pm London. This is the live call with me. Like the Q and A call that we have. Next slide. But for coaching pods, we understand that you may be in different time zones. And so two options as of now. First is 4am Los Angeles. Of course, we don't expect this is the time zone for Australia, all of Asia, for them to be able to collaborate and be there at a reasonable time instead of being in the middle of the night or 9:30am Los Angeles every Wednesday. So this happens every Wednesday for 60 to 90 minutes. Next slide. But that's not all. We have got some phenomenal bonuses added on. We shouldn't jump in wherever you want to. Okay? So first of all, we know that when you get certified with us, we don't want you to just get certified. We actually want you to go out and help help businesses. So we want you to actually help businesses outside of you and actually make money out of it yourself. Next slide. Which is why I wanted to, we wanted to offer you the first bonus, which is start your coaching business and grow your coaching business. What are these two different programs? These two different programs help you learn the fundamentals of starting a business, which means if you're like, hey, listen, I just have no idea how to even get my first client. You will do something called start your coaching business, which will help you get your first five clients. But let's say you get the five clients, you're like, Ajit, how do I get to 10? That's grow your coaching business. Sorry.
And this essentially solves the marketing problem, right? Because if you are doing this because you want to get clients, increase your income, you got to solve marketing. And so this solves that marketing problem. We teach you how to market yourself. And bonus two, we go even deeper. You get invited to a live event. This is going to happen after you graduate in August. A live event with Ajit where he will teach you. This is completely free. He will teach you again how to really put your marketing, your branding in order so you get the right clients. This is why if you look at the case studies, we have 400 something case studies of students who have taken this program. You look at the case studies, people are talking about the amount of income potential they are earning. It's because they've also learned to market themselves. And community is a big part of Mindvalley. One of the things that we that's happening in the world today is that there's an increase in loneliness. I mean, I mentioned to you I don't work in an office anymore. I work from home. But that also has a cost, right? Loneliness. Sometimes you want to be with people. And so we know that this is a gift and a curse of being a coach. It's a gift because you have freedom. You can go and work from a beach in Mexico, but at the same time, who are your peers? Who are your colleagues? And so we created what I call community bonuses to give you that gift of friendship and community. And one of the biggest community bonuses is you get a free $2,000 ticket to Mindvalley Super Coach Live. This is an event that happens in Europe. It's happening first last weekend of June this year. And it's happening in Tallinn, Estonia, which is where I live. Wanted to invite you all to my hometown, the beautiful city of Tallinn, Estonia. And super coach happens June 28, 29, 30, at hundreds, hundreds to a thousand coaches across the mind. Valley system come in and it's all about connecting. And I actually want to play this video for you so that you guys can get a sense of how we do community. Because this is what really makes us unique. There might be other certification programs out there that may Certify you as a business coach. I don't know. I bet you they don't have the brand that is as big as Mindvalley. I bet you they don't have the cost structure. As you will see, because we are so big, we can bring down the course. Economies of scale. But I definitely bet you this. They don't put the effort into community and magic as we do. Watch this video, Sam. Hey. Yeah, I'm about to shut it down. I'm about to shut it down. I'm about. I'm about. I'm about to shut it down. About to shut it down. So I hope you guys like that. So that's what you can expect, okay, at the Super Coach Experience, but it's also about the little things of the Mind Valley. We really want to make Mindvalley a luxurious experience, and so we want you to be part of a society. We're actually building a membership app where all our coaches are united and they can stay in contact with each other. You could be doing a trip to Berlin, and you could see, are there any other business coach graduates here that maybe I want to have coffee with? Because we have so much in common. So that app is coming. It's about eight months out, and we are. But to create that community, we're also creating a really cool symbol of membership. And this is the mindvalley certified coach pendant. You cannot buy this pendant. You earn it when you graduate. So we see coaches as human angels. And what is the archetype of the angel? The wing. This is why. Have you noticed the mindvalley logo looks like a wing? It's because it's not just about elevating you. It's about teaching you to uplift others. And therefore, all our coaching certifications right now have a pendant that is part of a wing design. And we choose a specific bird to symbolize this. Now, for business coaching, that bird is the bald eagle. So what you have over here is an eagle feather, and you get this as a mark of membership, and it's crazy. People absolutely love this. They treasure this. It becomes one of their most prized possessions. And some people do multiple mindvalley coaching certifications. These feathers look great together as well. So we do these little things as well to really make this touch your heart and your soul and give you that friendship and community that we all crave. Now, back to you, Ajit.
So what if you could make your investment back while you're still in the program? Like I mentioned before, business coaching is so high in demand. So many businesses around us need our help. That A, it's very easy to enroll clients and secondly, it's one of those things that people, because they associate directly to return on investment or ROI to the investment they make in working with you that you can charge really good amounts for it. For example, Vishen. Next slide. For example, if you get a three month client in a coaching frame, in a business coaching frame, one on one, you can very easily charge about $10,000. Very easily. It's not obnoxious, it's not too high, it's not too low, it's not too high. And most businesses will be able to afford that because you are creating outcome that is correlated to that $10,000. It might be that you're systemizing their company. It might be you are helping with their marketing, you may be helping with their overall mindset of the entrepreneur. Each of those areas are totally worth $10,000 because they might end up making $100,000 the return of that investment. And so it's absolutely going to be something that you can generate very easily. Again, this is not a guarantee. Nobody can guarantee you something like this. But this is something that is very doable and it's been done many times. We've shared enough case studies with you about that. Let's quickly summarize everything that we talked about so we have an idea of what you're getting in the program. So what you're getting is you're getting a 16 month immersive program. You're getting weekly live classroom classes directly with me. You're getting coaching labs to actually practice everything that you learned. You're going to be listed on the mindvalley certified coaches page. You get your certified coach profile on the mindvalley website. You get an invite to the supercoach summit that we talked about that you all love so much. You get the grow your business package that we talked about, which will help you start your coaching business and grow your coaching business up to 25 clients. And then you also get a live event with me for about three hours at the end of your training and where I show you how to make a great business plan that will help you execute. Now, total value of something like this will easily be $30,000. Any certification, the business category ranges anywhere between 10 to $18,000. Now, your investment in this program is about $5,499. But here's the deal. Next slide. Because you're here on this webinar with us because we are opening the spot right now, together with you right now for this Class, we are keeping the price at $5,000 or $4,999. So this is heavily discounted for somebody that is just getting started into certified business coaches. So what are the next steps? Here's what you need to do next. You don't have to decide the $5,000 decision right now. All you have to decide is are you interested? If you are, make a deposit of $200. We'll give you the link for it. Send in an application to become a mindvalley coach, and if you get approved, you will pay the balance of $4,799, making it a total of $4,999. If you're rejected, you simply will get your $200 back. If for any reason after depositing your $200, you feel like this is not right for me. And so if you need the $200 back, you can have the $200 back as well. The team has already posted the link for you to go ahead and deposit the $200. So at least you reserve your spot. And here's why I say reserve your spot anyways is we only open 500 spots for this program at any given time because we wanna maintain quality. That's also why we have an application process to this whole thing. We want to have you apply so we know your intentions are congruent to our intentions of why we are doing this. We want to have the highest quality people because we build strong communities, strong friendships like we talked about. And we want to make sure everybody that comes into the group is vetted through a certain process. Now we have an approval rate of I think about 80%. So you don't have to necessarily feel oh crap, I will get rejected or anything like that. We try to accommodate most individuals, but we still have to be careful about the quality of people that are coming in and quality of people that we are certifying. So those are all systems have to be in place.
Because community is so important. Because community is so important, right? And to build community you need like minded souls. People need to be have aligned values. They need to be passionate about being humanity plus uplifting the world. And, and it's those values that build community. And that's why this is an application process. That's why 20% of the people who apply will not make it. And now some of you I see in the chat ask for a payment plan. We do have a payment plan. So you can either do six payments of nine to nine or one payment of 4,999. Right. If you do one payment, you save 500 bucks. So that's just a little bit of information for you and to get started and to put in your $200 deposit to reserve your spot. All you got to do is just follow that QR code. So we opened this up in a four hour presentation, four hour webinar this past Sunday. We already have hundreds of people who have applied. I don't have the exact number right now because we're going through applications, but that we will most definitely sell out in the next two weeks. So you definitely want to make sure that you reserve your spot. Okay. Reserving your spot doesn't mean you're committing to the five grand. If one week from now you decide, you know, maybe I want to withdraw, you can just cancel, you get back your 200, but at least you've saved your spot and you know, you're guaranteed a seat if you want one. Okay. So that's really important. They are 500 slots open. We limit the number of slots because that creates better marketing opportunities for our coaches. Imagine if we just let 50,000 people in, right? It's not going to be as effective because we want to ensure that it's a small group of people so that that group of people are special, are unique, and can get clients. And that's why we make this limited. Now, the application deadline is April 16, so that's just a few days away. So you guys have about a week, and then after that we close the application and the class starts fairly soon, April 22nd. Remember, relative to everything you're getting, the pricing is not that high, but it is three hours a week. So you should be willing to commit three hours a week. And now, just to whet your appetite, let me show you some other stories of transformation. You can actually read 445 case studies of certified business coach. It is incredible the number of case studies we have. I actually want to show this to you guys. So you go to stories.mindvalley.com and under Programs, you can type in business coach, Mindvalley Certified Business Coach. Now look at that. 445 case studies. It is, it is a massive amount we've had. How many people go to the program budget. 2,500.
Yeah, 2,500.
Okay. And out of these 2,500. Like we don't. We're not allowed to pay people for these case studies. These are the students that willingly so happy with what happened that they, they submitted their case studies. So you can read them. It'll take you probably five hours to read these 445 case studies. But if you want proof of how effective this program is, all you got to do is just go to this page and scroll and scroll and scroll. Our students speak for themselves. Ajit, what is the NPS score for this program?
81 for the last one.
To give you an idea, NPS measures the quality of any product that customers buy. Right when the iPhone was launched, it was a hit. The iPhone's NPS was 82. This program has an NPS of 81. That means people are giving it the same rating in terms of how much they love it as the time the first iPhone came out, which is pretty darn good. Anything above 50 as an NPS is considered outstanding. And there you go. Look, these case studies keep going on and on and on. These are your peers, by the way. And if you want to see something extra special, you can choose the country. So let's choose. Maybe let's choose Lithuania. See, even in just the country of Lithuania, we have. Sorry, these are case studies from all Mindvalley products in Lithuania, but you can browse by country as well. So that's how powerful this program is. Okay, now let's go back. We want to highlight some of these stories so you see the potential here. Ajit, back to you.
Yeah, this is Theodora, and like I said, and even if you're thinking about $5,000 investment, think about it more like a $929 investment per month. And think about the outcomes you can generate while you're in the program to be able to pay for the program. That's why we give you the payment plan. So, for example, this is Theodora, and she was a coach, but she wasn't getting the kind of success that she wanted to get. But she was able to, as she was in the program. In the first month, she was able to enroll 15 entrepreneurial clients into a group program that she had. So it doesn't take that long to really get results. If you are intentional about it, you have to be intentional, and you have to do the work. There's no discounting of that. Next slide. Here is. I think the name is wrong here. This is a gentleman that I don't recall the name of, but he was able to raise $4 million in funding for a nonprofit that he was working for using the models he learned in Certified Business Coach. Now, this is not a direct benefit to the individual, but think about personal gains that the person can have with just that story of saying, I was able to raise $4 million for a nonprofit. Right. They can become more successful. That Julie is an outstanding case study. She's done actually multiple certifications with us now because she gets so much success every time she does it. So now she started her journey and she was doing like maybe 5, $10,000 a month and then she went from 10 to 20 and 20 to $30,000 a month. Recently, in January, she sent me an email saying, this blows my mind. When I started learning with you guys, I was a therapist making a few hundred dollars an hour. And Now I'm making 20, $30,000 days, which is insane in context of financial gain. In just two short years since Julie started studying our programs, this is all within. She's done multiple with us, but CBC is one of them. Next. And it's a success of cbc. Certified Business Coach. Sorry, I always use acronyms.
Now I want to show you like, like how do you, how do you have a $25,000 day? Right. So recently I hired a business coach who is a specialist in brand storytelling. So this business coach created this four hour experience for me and three members of my team. We flew to London, we sat down with them and in four hours they helped us articulate our brand story. Now for a company like ours, that's huge. It's going to make us probably maybe an extra million, 2 million this year. But what did we pay for those four hours? $25,000. And that's how people create these $25,000 days to create these, these deep immersions and companies are willing to pay for this type of benefit.
So true. Thank you for sharing that example. That very much happens within three weeks. Sandy was able to generate $10,000 in the first week of her actually going out in the world and becoming a business coach. She was self taught before this program. Next slide. This is Eveline. She's actually CEO of a company, I think, or a founder of a company. And she was able to change systems within her company. So. So it works even if you are an entrepreneur yourself. We've actually had many CEOs in the organization and we are even talking to organizations that want to deploy this training to their entire company because of how valuable this is now to them and to their businesses. Next slide. So this is Christina. She's completely new to coaching and this program helped her find her calling as a coach because before that she was just an IT consultant and then she was able to move into coaching. She and the story's going on and on and on and we can keep talking about those stories vision if you want to go. Next. This one is Nancy. Nancy says I have the skillset, tools and techniques to really help businesses individuals be best. They can be something that is new to Nancy. Next. I designed a new group program for manager levels at companies. These are just different models that you can use. Right? Because a lot of you may think, oh, coaching is only one on one in a business. You can do group coaching. You can do groups for leaders like Vishen was talking about. You could do a group for a whole founding team or a group of individuals within the company doing a very specific specialized thing. And you learn all of those things within the frame of certified business coach. It's not something that's out of scope of that. It's actually within that scope. Next. This is Jackie. Jackie, like I shared with her, she now has built a million dollar company coach consulting company for construction industry. She used to work with construction teams as an employee, as a contractor. But because certified business coach she was able to upgrade the way she was positioning herself. And now she is. I think she's had one client at a million. The second one is in the waiting because she can only take a client at a time and then she has a suite of clients that are waiting and she has to hire a team now because she's like, I can't necessarily deliver it to everyone. So now I have to come up with a whole different business model. But that shows the expansion took her about two years. It's not something that happens immediate. To get to that level took her about two years. Yeah, from what I recall to get to from being working in a company, in a construction company to building a million dollar coaching practice. Next. But also know that everything like in Mindvalley is completely safe. Your investment is completely safe. The $200 that you deposit, if in two weeks from now or a week from now, you go, hey, this is not something that I think I have the time for. I would want my 200 bucks back. You can get your 200 bucks back. You can simply send us an email or a message and we'll return your money because you are completely risk free. But you do want to save your spot. Like Vishen mentioned, we only have 500 spots. A couple of hundred are already taken. I don't know the exact number as well. But that means that it will fill out. Like we have almost 1,000 people right now. Tons of you are already saying you want to be this coach. You probably made a deposit already. So it's very likely that the 500 spots will go away very soon. So you Want to make that deposit secure your spot? The application deadline is a week from now. It's the 16th of April 2024, and we are going to start the class on the 22nd of April 2024. So you want to decide as soon as possible. And again, like I said, you don't have to think about all of the money immediately. You have to think about can you afford thousand bucks for the next six months, even as an investment. Because if you do the work, if you stay intentional about it, and I'm not promising this, but I'm asking for intention and seeing if you're going to commit the time, energy, resources to it. You could be making that money while you're going through the program. We have enough people who have done that in the past. Again, I can't promise that as a result, but it is a possibility for sure. Next slide. So, as a free gift that I promised, I'm going to give you away an entire book for absolutely free. This is a book that I wrote a few years ago called Live Big.

Click on download and you should be able to download the book right away. It'll be a PDF and that you can read on in your free time. So that's our free gift to you. This book will help you really organize your mind beautifully. Now, there were some questions that we have already collected from the Q and A box. And I think we're going to start by answering those questions.
Okay? So I will help navigate and you can lead the answers. Okay, Ajit. So, firstly, thank you everyone for being here. This is the end of the presentation. You have all the information you need. I hope you guys decide, look at your goals, your vision for how you want to live life and decide is this right for you. Ultimately, the investment here for the right person is negligible given the sheer benefits that you get. Remember, you're not just learning how and getting a certificate and a gift and a title that allows you to go out there and coach and earn money, but you're learning how to become a better entrepreneur yourself. I never went to business school. I got. I didn't have good grades. My GPA graduating undergrad was too low and so I got rejected from every MBA program I went for. And I had to learn business on myself, by myself. And I found, I later realized that the MBA program pretty much useless. Most MBAs end up in corporate jobs. They don't end up as entrepreneurs. What I ended up doing was I ended up self funding my business education by hiring mentors and coaches and joining programs like this. And I would invest crazy into these programs. I remember investing into one program that was $25,000 a year, another program that was $40,000 a year because I wanted to learn how to scale the business. And ultimately I was able to make it successful. But what you have to understand is that there's so much fluff out there in business education. You do not need to go through an mba. They are shorter, faster ways to become a master entrepreneur. And that's what we try to do here. Mindvalley is a transformation company. And transformation is about creating the best results in the fastest amount of time and then making those results sticky so they stick to you. A mind, when it's truly transformed, can never again shrink back to its original size. Everything you learn here is not like your university degree where you forget stuff. Everything you learn here sticks to you. It is wisdom. It is a new belief systems. It's new ways of looking at the world. It is an irreversible shift in who you are. And who you are is you become a better and better and smarter and wiser business builder as you go through this program. Okay, so let's now go on to the Q and A. So the first question is. I don't. Sorry. The first question is, can I become a business coach without having an experience of running my own business?
You absolutely can become a business coach without having any experience of running your own business. For example, like I shared when I coached Lisa Nichols, I wasn't running a business. I was a employee in Mindvalley. I was just. Vishen was running the business. I was just under his guidance. But what happens is with the learnings that you have in Certified Business Coach, you get all the models that we've invested millions of dollars in, testing, proving, retesting and all of that, and learning and so forth that are very practical. So you can take those models exactly as we teach you and literally deploy it in the company. And you will see results, right? So you'll focus probably on areas that you understand a little bit more, but you understand a lot more areas. And you can take these templates and deploy it. So you absolutely are trained to be able to do so without having to Run a business yourself. The second question we have here is I don't want to become a coach. I want to just grow my business. Is business coaching still for me, so many case studies that we have, so many students that we have in the program are CEOs and founders themselves. And the reason why they joined the program is even if you're the CEO or founder, you never really got real business education or you have to spend thousands and thousands like 25, 30, $40,000. Like Vishen is talking about joining masterminds and getting ungodly regulated, unstructured information, hoping to make sense of it. We make it sensible for you. A lot of our students are CEOs and founders and they use these models and certified business coach to be able to become better leaders and become better entrepreneurs and founders.
Yeah, roughly 50% of the people who join the program have no intention to become a coach. They're doing it because they just want to be a better entrepreneur, a better CEO, and it works for them as well. So you're not alone. It was shocking to us as well. We didn't expect 50 50, but it's actually 50 50.
What if I miss live Q and A with Ajit? Well, very simple. We record all calls, we upload them on your, your class circle group and you get access to it. So you can just watch the record.
Basically someone posted in the chat, I don't know if I can do this because I have, I have office work hours. Well, if you cannot attend the live Q and A with Ajit, you know, you can always, you can always watch the recording. But you know what most people find is that if they speak to their boss and you say, hey, I'm investing in this trading to make me better, a better employee, because this actually makes you a better employee, the boss typically will give you that time. We've, we've never seen that problem. Is it accredited? Ait.
Yeah, we, we explained it to you. It's acquired by EMCC or European Mentoring and Coaching Council CC Units from icf. And of course it's a mindfully accredited business coaching certification program.
Yes, perfect. Okay, and then next question. Why is there an application process?
There's an application process because we want to build a strong community and we realize that sometimes the application or the intention of the person that has joined the program is off alignment to what we are trying to do in the world. So that's why we put an application process in the middle.
Okay, perfect. And that's it. That's it for the presentation. Let me just Go back to the QR code. Okay. That's the QR code again for the free gift. We'll also send this to you by, by email. Okay.
And they're all linked up in resources.
Yeah, yeah, this. And then let's go to the QR code for the, the program. Where is that? Here we go. All right, we'll keep that up there. Now, a couple of questions came in in the Q and A box. So Muhammad Ali says this. Muhammad Ali. What a cute name. Do I get this right? You will teach me how to scale my business and apply these concepts to my own business and you will teach me how to coach other business owners and executives? Exactly.
Absolutely. 100. Yes. Exactly what you said. Yes.
And Jackie. Hi, Jackie. I recognize your name. Jackie said, I'm currently a Mindvalley certified life coach. How is business coaching different from life coaching? How are the modules different?
They're completely different. So in, in life coaching, we use the, the four part approach of, of coaching individuals in their personal lives. So it's a lot more comprehensive on the personal coaching front. Whereas business coaching is. We use the approach of coach consulting, which effectively has some fundamentals that are similar, but in business context. But the consulting part, which is about 1112 weeks of the program, about more than half of the program is all around consulting, which is not. None of it is covered in life coaching because this is very much about business. So it's a completely different program context, container and content wise.
Patrick asks, how does the risk free guarantee work? Until when, when do I have time to withdraw if I choose to?
So you have time until your 200 deposit is. You can, if you don't ever, ever use the 200 deposit. If you're approved, if you never pay, I think you can get a refund whenever. But it's the two week guarantee, right? So if you, if you do a $200 deposit within a two weeks period, you decide to not join, you can get your money back.
Got it? Got it. Alejandra said, how can I be a business coach without experience in this, in owning a business, Alejandro?
That's because what happens very often is that we think we don't have any experience until the life we have lived. Right? So you are thinking, oh, today I become a business coach and that's the only education I have in the world. That's not true. You've worked jobs, most likely, you've probably been successful at those jobs. That's why you're even in this training. There's a possibility that you have been helpful to Other people and those ideas have actually worked. You just don't wake up one day and say, I'm gonna be a coach. I truly believe that it has been life challenges that have inspired you to come on this call. There have been things you have done in life that have inspired you to come on this call. You're probably an incredible individual because your orientation is I wanna help other people. That's not everybody, right? We have hundreds of thousands of people in the mindvalley audience. We have maybe a thousand, five, two thousand people joining this call right now. Right? There's a percentage of person, of people whose heart is at the right place. So not, not in the right place, but heart is in the place where they want to impact other people. Right?
And if also you're learning structures, you're learning structures and systems, you're learning structures and systems and it's the structures. See, it's not about you, it's about the system that you're guiding the person to. They are paying for the system and we're giving you that system. That's why it works. Now, anonymous attendee says, I work at early stage startups, sometimes in pre revenue or pre funding situation is pretty chaotic at that time. Is this program helpful in these situations as well?
Yes, absolutely. It's applicable to anyone actually it works really well, definitely up till you hit 100 million in revenue. So early age startups are great for it. Solopreneur is great. All of these. Yes, absolutely. We have tested this, these models on all stages of business. You won't apply all of it in all of the businesses. Of course, when it's early stage, you're not necessarily talking to them about branding as much as you're talking to them about marketing. So that's just the difference that is there. But it's applicable.
Got it. All right, so that's it for the questions. Thank you guys. We can pause here. Ajit, any closing words?
Well, my final thought for anyone here is that if you made to this part of the call, if you're interested in business, if you're interested in creating transformation, this is one of those programs that really should align with all those desires that have manifested you to stay here till this time in the call. We are almost over an hour in and you're still here, which means there's something in you that has kept you here. So listen to that voice, make a deposit and then decide and see if it's right for you. See, our intention here at mindvalley is to be able to impact as many individuals as we possibly can and train as many individuals as we possibly can can that can further impact society. And this is one of my favorite programs to train it in, because every time we impact one business, we impact thousands of individuals, directly or indirectly. So I'm really, really excited for the ones who take this opportunity and join us in this program.
Yeah. Thank you, guys. Thank you for all being here. There were 1500 people on this call at its max. Thank you, Ajit. And we'll wrap up here. Okay, thanks.
All right.
